Me and My Family Infected by Covid

The most undesirable has happened...

10 days ago, I was exposed to an undesirable covid cluster at the vaccination center I went where I volunteered my blood as sample.

5 days later , not knowing I was exposed, my dad and I was at the Local Hospital to take his blood test. Only to come home to realise that I was exposed to it.

We were monitoring our oxygen rate and all was fine, above 95%, occasionally I slipped into the borderline.

2 days later we had the PCR test and both my mom and I were negative, we thought the worse was over.

Then dad suddenly had a fever spike and had flu normal flu symptoms , but he recovered pretty much in 48 hours; as me and my mom was negative, we never thought that my dad's flu was already covid possibility.


Then the fever started to come on Sunday evening...

Both my mom and I battled through the fever spike and my mom couldn't stop coughing again. but sweat broke through and we thought we were already ok.

And Monday came....

I even microblogged (at noise.cash) that although I am negative, but my symptoms were like vaccination side effect x2 of the pain. The whole body felt like knives piercing through my muscles and body, and I was having massive gastric.

I thought it was the workout... only to realise that on Tuesday (this morning), mom's symptom has gone worse to purging and vomiting with massive headache, and we know this is not right.

After calling the clinic and making the right arrangements, my mom and I went there first and we did our RTK swab test. And I can tell you, it was worse than normal because they wanted to make sure they "got it all"


Most unfortunately... we got the "Unwanted Grand Prize"


Settling our tests and my parents' medication, to help my mom to stop from vomiting further and for the seniors to go on anti-biotics, I have to pay almost $200 USD in credit

This is really not the best time as my Nexo credit was all used up and locked in RealT. This is really a headache.

With the market downtrend in this manner, this is not helping me too much, but the good thing is that because I have started running DeFi, I can scrap a little bit here and there and pay back 10% first.


Nevertheless, it is still a good set aside.


Guys, please never spend all the crypto you earned for daily needs, if you have a bit of % you can place on Nexo / Celsius / Defi, do so. That's the best you can do for anything-can-happen situations.

Who would have known 5 days ago we were celebrating negative, and 5 days later, my whole family has to be quarantined for another 14 days?

No matter what, God is still sovereign and if HE can get many people in my group, even protected my nephew from close contact, HE can do it again for me and my family.

But this time, I will know exactly how it feels to be attacked by Covid but because of first vaccination I didn't have to be hospitalised; and my mom is still on Stage 2 (Basic Symptoms) as my dad and I has almost reached herd immunity at home.

How about you? Are you setting aside for expenses like these?

Until then

I am very sorry to hear about that.

I have a dreaded credit card for “emergencies” but only because I don’t want to have to use my crypto for another 5-10 years.

I hope you get well very soon.

Yeah but even with credit card, it is still expensive.

I agree, credit cards are VERY expensive. Especially the one I have which has a 26.99% interest rate.

I don't use it, it just sits in my dresser, just in case it is needed.

Thank you for taking the time to reply, I know you are not well right now.

Hey girl, oddly I didn't get any notifications, but yes 10 days before was intense and now we have to go through another 14 days and we have to report our oxygen level and symptoms daily.

Thanks for the well wishing you stay safe there!

We were in a private clinic, otherwise it could be hundreds and you may have to wait for many many hours to get tested, which is like in a hornet's nest.

The bill also added emergency injection for my mom to stop vomiting + saline to replenish her loss fluid and also for gastric. And we were monitored for 3 hours plus a bunch of antibiotics and also gastric tabs, treating sore throat... Which actually round up a huge sum.

Thanks so much for the well withing too.

So sorry to hear that your parent also got the Covid, it's really hard for the elderly.
Take care and hope everything will pass smoothly...

Sorry to hear this, I hope you all pull through and come out healthy on the other side of this.

I too have shifted some funds into DeFi, even though we are very much in need of more funds each day. I luckily have not withdrawn any of my DeFi earnings yet, and hope to keep those funds only for emergencies like the one you've found yourself in.

Are you able to easily convert your DeFi cryptos into cash without major fees?

Most of my DeFi / CeFi are in BSC and Polygon. So far I am able to do this through Binance and switch it to the crypto I know my local peer to peers will still take in (ike LTC - yes, it still has value in SEA) Remitano. Losing around 10-15% of the total.
Looks a bit high but it is still doable.
I haven't test L2 polygon yet, because I just started there
